  • Jho Low Denies Funding BN but Holds Charity Concert Malaysiakini.Com April 8, 2013
    Jho Low denies funding BN but holds charity concert MalaysiaKini.com April 8, 2013 Flamboyant billionaire Low Taek Jho, or more popularly known as Jho Low, is helping little-known NGO 1Malaysia Welfare Club to organise a charity concert on April 20 in Penang featuring international celebrities including American hip hop singer Swizz Beats and rapper Busta Rhymes. According to Sin Chew Daily, Low said the charity concert, scheduled to be held at Penang Han Chiang High School, is to raise funds for charity organisations in the state. The concert, he stressed, will also help to shape a caring community to address the current unhealthy trend of spreading hatred on the Internet which has tarnished Malaysia’s international image. People from different races, ages and genders will be able to relax and watch a high-quality international concert during the heated campaign period to showcase a stable, harmonious and peaceful society, he explained. Other artistes who have agreed to perform at the concert include Hong Kong singers Sandy Lam, George Lam, Sally Yeh, and local artists Eric Moo, Ning Baizura and Shila Amzah. Low said he has the responsibility to leverage on his international experience and influence to help his home country, hence he promised to help the NGO when the latter approached him with the proposal to hold a concert featuring international artistes. The concert is expected to attract 100,000 people, he added. On the concert expenses, Low revealed that the performance fees of some artistes are sponsored by wealthy private companies, while the American artistes will take his personal jet to Malaysia and perform for free due to his strong friendship with them.
